Why not use python3Packages.callPackage?

Using that is discouraged because that way, you lose the ability to override the python package set. Overriding a single dependency is not always what you want because you cannot use multiple versions of the same python package.

But the same applies to the pkgs package set. Using .override on a derivation only overrides the immediate deps, not the whole set. If anybody wanted to override the whole set, they can use overlays.
Edit: Oh well it doesn't matter much

But for Python applications, it's common to require a specific version of a dependency. This can be done by overriding pythonPackages inside the application's expression.
